Responce to:knolden, funny you should mention the Quriains though the Rachni kinda forced there hand, though the Krogen was a quick and dirty dicsion and they had the reblions coming.
new chapter, remeber review! I listen to you, take Glaziola whos suggestions I coped into the last chapter and he also asked for a codex entry for Psycicse, guess what this codex entrys about?
also you running out of time to vote for what nations Sheperds going to be from, were gettting to the blitz and Shep going to take part, running out of time so far the Allies are in the lead.
On the planet Syglar the Soviet, Empire and Allied troops had gotten word of the peace a day latter and were withdrawing. They fell back from the city and they evaced vie Chronosphere. Slowly over the next three hours, under the watchful guns of the Council the troops left the city until they finally only the bases and the Shogun Executioner remained.
A flight of Cryocopters flew over and used there combined S.H.R.I.N.K. Beams on it shrinking it down then it was chronoed to specially made deck in the Zeus.
Vlad sighed finally this war was over he had just been Chronoed to the Soviet part of the Zeus, he would then take a shuttle to the Soviet Dreadnought.
"So comrade what happens now?" he turned to see a Peackeeper leaning against a wall.
"I don't know, were going to talk to the Citadel though, Hu I just can't wait for my tour to be over."
"tell me about it, join the army they said, see the world they said, damn recruiters."
"I drink to that." Vlad said with a chuckle
"on the subject, I been hearing rumors theres a Soviet commissar so tough she drinks Molotov is that true?"
"true? I was her subordinate shes as hard as iron and cold as a Siberian winter."
"so its true? She drinks Molotovs?"
"like grape juice."
"now thats tough."
"indeed, indeed." Vlad said with a chuckle "I better get to my shuttle goodbye capitalist."
"bye Red." he said with a smile and the two parted.

As the evac of Syglar was under way the three commandos were going to Derska much asked after bar since they ran out of time the last day. The the three enter the bar with there guide "this is Chora's Den a popular, gentlemen's club." Derksa did not put a second glance at the dancers and sat down before the bartender.
She turned to there guide Miren "so you paying?"
"umm yes, whats you DNA?"
"my what?" she said
Janet spoke up for her "levo-amino."
"O good that makes it easy." she said "three wines please." Derska scoffed "whats the strongest drink you have." the Bartender, a Turian saw a chance for revenge for Syglar. "may I suggest Ryncol." he had a evil smile.
"I do not recommend that." all three humans turned to face the new comer, a old Krogan with a gray head plate and a gravely voice. "Ryncol goes though aliens like ground glass."
"good, One Ryncol." Derska said with a smile. The Turian poured a glass with a smile. Derska gripped the shot glass and downed the whole thing in one shot. She shivered a bit and smiled.
"now thats what I'm talking about! I'll take a whole bottle!" the Krogan gave a laugh "well I have been wrong before."
"ya," Janet turned to a screen displaying Citadel News Five with subtitles, the Ceremony to let them join the Citadel was beginning.
"quick turn the music off!" she said and Yuriko agreed with a simple twist of the hand the speakers in the room exploded and all eyes turned to the TV now the loudest thing in the room.
SHIFT
"This is Isandra and the ceremony for joining the humans to the Citadel has began the order of events has the Empire of the Rising sun going first followed by the Soviet Union then Allies." the Camera focused on the three humans before the Council in the Council chambers.
The Council was still processioning the videos from Syglar and were unsure what to make of the humans all three of there nations.
Tevos started it "Empire of the Rising Sun step forward. Seiichi step forword.
Shrenda spoke "have you read the treaty's of the Citadel?"
"we have."
Valern spoke next "do you agree to the terms?"
"The Empire of the Rising sun, does not agree to the terms."
gasps went around the room and the council was at a lose how the hell did they deal with this?
Tevos though to carry on with the ceremony,
"umm, Soviet Union step forth." Garik did
as before Shrenda spoke "have you read the treaty's of the Citadel?"
"we have."
Valern spoke next again "do you agree to the terms?"
"The Soviet Union, does not agree to the terms."
Valern huffed in anger "well lets skip the normal procedures, do the allies accept the terms or not?"
Kore smiled "No we do not."
"this is preposterous, No race has ever refused a offer to join the Citadel!" Valern almost yelled
"well, were the first." Garik said with a smile.
"you have turn aside all rights a Citadel race has, are protection are technology."
"see as how we kicked you ass with you your technology, I don't see a problem with that." Seiichi said with a smile and Kore added.
"works both ways, no Chronotechnology for you and the only way you see a Shogun Executioner is if its attacking you."
"do you wish to rethink you choice?" Tevos said "as it is you will have no embassy on the Citadel."
"No problem, the Red Pride will remain, at you convenience, and we will remain aboard."
"you expect us to let you keep a dreadnought of a with in the vary confins of are fleet?"
"seeing the size of the fleet out side its no problem, and don't worry we soon have a more peaceful embassy of are own up does the council find this agreeable?" the members looked at each other.
"we will have to discuss this."
"take you time." Kore said with a smile "were not going away."
SHIFT
"were not going away." echoed though the still lounge no one made a move save Janet who calmly loaded her shot gun with blanks and discharged one round.
"Now thats Humanity!"
The Krogen laughed "always love seeing someone stick it to the council but that was poetry."
"Indeed, we are willing to bend, just not over." Janet said with a smile.
"May I?" the Krogen said pointing to her gun and she handed it over "special AP soboted slugs can punch though a Turians shielding and kill the alien behind him."
"Impressive, I might just buy one of these." he said eyeing the bore respectfully.
"The slugs are for my use alone, but the Grummond-8 are available on the market."
"impressive." he gave it back.
"you ain't seen nothen yet, the Empires going to move a Nano core here for are embassy, now that be impressive." Yurkio said.
"a what?"
"Nano core, and it amazing." Yuriko said with a smile a she looked the Krogen. He looker her over, Janet and Derska both looked tough with big muscles. Yuriko was a stick.
"and you are?"
"Yuriko prime." she lifted her self off the ground till he looked him in the eye. He backed down not want to screw with a biotic as powerful as he thought she was to blow all the speakers out at once.
SHIFT
Valern paced back and forth "what the hell do we do? We can't trust these humans!" Tevos sighed "don't you think you being a little racist?"
"No! It justified the attacked Syglar!"
"after you attacked them first." Tevos said standing up to face Valern "we must live with that, now what do we do?"
"I propose we let them have there embassy if for no other reason it will help more fighting from happening."
"On the Presidium ?" Valern asked.
"No, there happy with a embassy off the Citadel it self that will do."
"right and for snubbing the whole of the Citadel they get a space station all to themselves?" Valern seethed.
"Valern be reasonable, they need a Embassy of some sort, were risk have a, no three, Quarians out there that can destroy almost any fleet we send at them we need to not fight them."
"agreed." Shrenda said "we need to make sure we stay on the same side."
"Hump." Valern said
"so its agreed the Humans get there embassy." Tevos said
"and good ridence, I disparage finding room for all three of them on the Presidium."
"amen to that." Tevos said
Kore took a drink of coffee as her computer flashed the E mail and opened it up.
SHIFT
"look alive were green to "build" are embassy."
Seiichi smiled "Last I heard the Nano core was programed to go full out, its going to be a embassy and much more."
Garik also smiled "good."
SHIFT
"This is Citadel News five here I am Isandra with news fresh form the Citadel, as you know all three of the human nations have refused to join the Citadel and recently the Council have allowed them to build a station near the Citadel that will be there embassy. But other are still unnerved by there weapons. When Syglar was restored to the Extranet videos surfaced that showcased the power of the three human nations. Joining me now Salarian professor Reda expert on military science thank you for joining us." she turned to face the Salarian who had so far been off camera.
"thank you having me." he said with a nod.
"what can you guess about the military power of the three races?" He chuckled.
"you asked me that before and this time I have answer."
"and it is?"
"there powerful, they have learned things about the universe that I doubt even the Prothens knew, and more important they have learned to weaponize it."
"what do you mean professor?"
"lets take the Soviets, there is no known way to create a lighting bolt and throw it at least as far as they can. A far better example may be the Allies Chronotechnology, it just,," he stuttered and came to a loss of words.
"imposable! A Chronosphere breaks at least five laws of physics and there just no way to, understand it!"
"lets suppose a hypothetical, if Human declared war on the Citadel who would win?"
"I don't know, the Humans have weapons that can go though a mass effect field but we have more ships, it would be bloody no matter who came out on top and thats why there making peace rather then fighting it out."
"well we can all be glad of that. What do you make of the fact the councils letting them building a embassy station near the Citadel?"
"good move we can't have them being a rough state like the Quarians we need to be able to talk to these people and learn from them."
"well I agree we can't have a rough state, though the Quarian examples bit off, do you think the Citadel can make use of the human technology?"
"unlikely, they don't share there technology with each other, and there the same species what chance do we have?"
"and on that thought, thank you professor Reda I think we might speak again soon."
"My pleasure."

two days latter a massive glow of white light emerged and when it faded the Allied Zelinski class ship, Mountain emerged.
Though briefed on it the Citadel defense fleet still panicked slightly, how the hell do we fight a foe who can ignore mass relays?
Ignoring and unaware of panic the Mountain caused the ship moved to the area cleared for the station. The council members watched and cameras were turned on the ship.
"they say the station will be ready for business in 36 hours, do they expect us to believe that?" Valern asked.
"maybe its small." Tavos said.
In a flash the Mountains internal Chronospheres flashed and a massive spherical blob of omni-gel.
"thats it?" a second latter a second flash showed more omni-gel and three nanocores.
"still not,," Valern was going to say impressed when the Nanocores activated.
Glowing green the omni-gels raw minerals were consumed and the station emerged from nothing.
It looked like a CG generated wire framed model for a half minute but the walls slowly took form. The final shape soon took form consuming all the omni-gel.
A perfectly white sphere emerged with a kilometer and a half diameter with 12 square boxes sticking out of the circumference.
There were many things to be checked and items to be brought in and final equipment that the allies and soviets had not given the Empire for there Nanocore such as a Proton Collider and a Steel Curtain but it was basically done.
"holy shit!" Valern said "they could build a city in a hour!"
"seeing all the gel it took I say it take longer then that but not by much." Shrenda said.
Tevos looked at the station.
"I'll say this, they have changed the galaxy for ever for good or for ill were never going back."
-Codex:Psychics-
The Empire Psionic core is often compared to the Biotics found in other armys but the comparison is grossly inaccurate.
Psychics are measured on scale between 1-7 class based on a five category scale of power, dexterity, multitasking, control and endurance.
There are number of different types of Psychic powers such as Precognition and Fulgurkinesis each has there criteria for each power level but the most common type of Psychic remains Telekinesis and are the most useful as only a Telekinetic can use empire Psy drives.
Alpha class Psychics are the weakest and have almost no use.
Beta Class are found manning psychic Decimators were there combined psychic might is able to be used
Epsilon are the lowest level of Psychic used as battle units. There commonly able to throw pebbles at high enough speeds to break shielding with a few blasts or scatter a infantry squad with a mind blast.
The Theta and much more powerful Omicron class are more powerful then Epsilon, but are not used on the the battle field the Theta class makes up the bulk of the Empire FTL ability. By interfacing there psychic powers to the ships element zero cores they can create and control the electrical impulse with specialized equipment to create and maintain the mass effect. Omicron class are used on bigger star ships though the few times a Omicron has been in battle have been memorable. All star ships keep a core of Psionic aboard often making up a group of 30 on bigger star ships. Theta and Omicron psykers who are not Telekinetic are used in a battle field or support role depending on the psychic power in question.
Omega class are used as the Commandos in the same way Yurkio omega was used to spear head assaults and rip buildings apart though they can also power Empire Psy drives like the Theta and Omicron class.
The Prime class exists for only one being, Yurkio Prime, a clone of Yurkio her power level is intense able to shred tanks with her mind and draw airplanes from the sky.
All in all a standard Biotic is on par to a unaugmented Telekinetic Omicron class psychic. Unaugmented as the Empire Nanites allow them to turn a normal Psychic into a Biotic psychic.
Biotic psychics are far more powerful then either a psychic or biotics and are fully able to use there biotics with out a amp and can use there power faster and with far more force as the Biotics take the sting of out of how tiering Telekinetic powers are and they can provide attack power to Psykers who's power is not of assault nature Omega class Precog can still throw tanks like toys with biotic powers due to how well disciplined there mind is.
Psychics in the empire army are often envied for there power and the fact they can eat anything and not gain a pound due to how caloric intense there powers are needing almost five times the calories as normal soldiers and they often come up with new fatty high caloric foods to help power there body's.
Empire policy is currently aligned so that psychics get special tax breaks for having many children and having a psychic in the family is seen as a source of pride and honor providing a cultural incentive to marry Psychics this had created a situation were Psychics are the most Darwinian fit and are become more common.
Any person may develop psychic power but there is a link between genetics and psychic power. Also there is clear evidence of Psychics among other species most prominent being the Asair and Empire Parapsycholgist propose this to be the true reason behind Asair melding which bares striking similarity's to Telepathy.
